D’oh

Ever since I was a little girl in the kitchen making cookies with my mom, I have loved loved loved to sneak bites of of the cookie dough as we were baking cookies. This was frowned upon. I was in rebellion as a child and did it anyways! It was worth every bite!! I came across a recipe for Cookie Dough Dip!! My mouth began to water and my tummy growled as I craved this delectable dish until the very minute I made it! This was a great success and I have made it twice in the last week.

Cookie Dough Dip

makes about 1 1/2 cups

~1/2 cup butter

~1/3 cup brown sugar

~1 8-ounce block of cream cheese, softened

~1/2 cup powdered sugar

~1 teaspoon vanilla extract

~3/4 cups chocolate chips

Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture starts to bubble. Set aside to cool, and whisk in vanilla.

Cream together cream cheese and powdered sugar for 60 seconds. With mixer on low speed, add in brown sugar and butter mixture. Mix until combined. I added the chocolate chips at this time so the mixer could break them up into pieces. You can so that, or just fold in the chocolate chips.

Garnish with additional chopped chocolate. Serves with fruit, cookies, crackers, pretzels or a spoon. Animal Cookies work as an amazing vehicle to feed your face with this wonderful wonderful wonderful snack!!

~ Have a happy mouth!!
